The inaugural series of The Amazing Maia Race  started at Melbourne Cricket Ground with 11 teams stood inside the cricket ground. They were given their first task: the Roadblock, asking "Who is your tower of strength?". One team member had to scale (or climb) then abseil one of the six light towers 75 m before retrieving their next clue. The clue instructed to travel to their first destination: the Indonesian island of Lombok. First, they must take a flight to Bali. The first flight via Darwin arrives first, and the second flight–the direct flight–arriving an hour and 20 minutes after the first.

Upon arriving in Bali, teams had to head to BlueWater Express where they signed up for one of three boats leaving for Lombok. The first boat, leaving at 6:00 AM could contain the first three teams, while the remaining boats (leaving at 30 minute intervals after the first boat) could carry four teams each. Once in Lombok, teams disembarked at Papak Beach and searched a marked fishing boat with a nets to find their next clue, instructing them to Pura Lingsar temple and must participate a rice war ritual called perang topat, where teams were showered with rice powder by locals, before receiving their next clue.

The clue was soon found out for the Detour, given the teams choice between Cash or Carry. In Cash, teams were required to make and sell the local traditional bakso for no less than Indonesian rupiah 5,000 per bowl, and were required to sell 15 of them. Once they sold, the store manager would get their next clue. In Carry, teams were required to find a market stall and carry traditional produce on their heads to another market stall within the same market before retrieving their next clue.

The post-Detour clues teams made their way to Malimbu Beach and rode an outrigger to Gili Trawangan Island. Both team members were required to dive onto Halik Reef where one of them only needed to retrieve a briefcase at the bottom. Upon arriving back at the shore, teams had to count the money in the briefcase where totals varied from team to team and use this as the combination to retrieve the next clue, instructing them to ride a cidomo to the Pit Stop.
